Producer/Composer/Songwriter/Artist Stupid Genius a distinct sound that fuses acoustic & vintage analog instruments, heart-pounding riddims, heavy southern-drenched percussion, and dramatic synthesized melodies. His sound evokes both vintage and futuristic emotions, woven with the heavy impact of contemporary club music. He possesses a solid musical background as a composer/producer, and has worked with several independent and major-label recording artists, producers, and songwriters worldwide, and is currently the in-house producer for Orlando-based indie label, South Coast Records. He began his classical training in piano at the age of seven, which led to the study of violin and trumpet. This training includes three summer sessions at Interlochen Arts Camp in Interlochen, MI. By age 14 he was a self-taught bassist and guitarist. By age 17, he learned to DJ on Technics turntables and remix songs utilizing basic sampling techniques and drum machines. Eventually all skills became integrated and applied to the art of songwriting, beat making, and production through usage of the MPC2000 and eventually Pro Tools and Logic Pro. Additionally, he grew addicted to writing verses and hooks while in class, freestyle rapping with those close to him, and singing along to every reggae chant and riddim he could get his hands on. The overall sound continues to flourish through passion, inspiration, and constant refinement.
